all this and heaven too

Florence And The Machine - All This and Heaven Too

心跳難以翻譯

它有自己的語言

言語，舌音，輕嘆
And the heart is hard to translate
它用祈文和咒語
It has a language of its own
描述偉人的宏大時代
It talks and tongues and quiet sighs
用渺小的手勢
And prayers and proclamations
示意短暫狹隘的渴望
In the grand days of great men
所有的教育，沒有教會我如何駕馭它
And the smallest of gestures
字詞從唇邊滑落，返回時已面目全非
In short shallow gasps
我想把它還原成詩句，但我不知如何下筆

我似乎讀不懂它
But with all my education I cant seem to commend it
我願意放棄一切，就算身處天國
And the words are all escaping me and coming back all damaged
犧牲所有，換取一瞬間也好
And I would put them back in poetry if I only knew how
我只想讀懂它的含義
I cant seem to understand it
你說的一字一句
And I would give all this and heaven too
因為我一直奮筆疾書
I would give it all if only for a moment
卻記不清它的意思
That I could just understand
它踮起腳尖和我對話
The meaning of the word you say
在我的心間歌唱
Cause Ive been scrawling it forever
它在深夜中吶喊
But it never makes sense to me at all
卻在晨光來臨時破裂
And it talks to me in tiptoes
所有教育沒有教會我駕馭它的方法
And it sings to me inside
字詞從唇邊滑落，返回時已面目全非
It cries out in the darkest night
我想把它還原成詩句，但我不知如何下筆
And breaks in morning light
我似乎讀不懂它
But with all my education I cant seem to commend it
我願意放棄一切，就算身處天國
And the words are all escaping and coming back all damaged
犧牲所有，換取一瞬間也好
And I would put them back in poetry if I only knew how
我只想讀懂它的含義
I cant seem to understand it
你說的一字一句
And I would give all this and heaven too
因為我一直奮筆疾書
I would give it all if only for a moment
卻記不清它的意思
That I could just understand
我願意放棄一切，就算身處天國
The meaning of the word you say
犧牲所有，換取一瞬間也好
Cause Ive been scrawling it forever
我只想讀懂它的含義
But it never makes sense to me at all
你說的一字一句

因為我一直奮筆疾書
And I would give all this and heaven too
卻記不清它的意思
I would give it all if only for a moment
不，字詞和語言
That I could just understand
都不值得這樣對待
The meaning of the word you say
因為我笨拙的遣詞造句
Cause Ive been scrawling it forever
永遠不能和這種感情相提並論
But it never makes sense to me at all
天界的語言也無法描述我心中的感覺
No, words or language
詞語變得蒼白無力
It doesnt deserve such treatment
所以我高聲喊出
And all my stumbling phrases never amounted
從前尚未知曉的語言
To anything worth this feeling
All this heaven never could describe such a feeling
As Im having words were never so useful
So I was screaming out a language
That I never knew existed before
